Killington opening day trip..

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Right now I'm chillin on the east side of Rutland in a steezy suite with A-Jeff(AtomicSkier) and Phillycore..A really easy drive up in about 5 hours door to door along with a steezy dinner at the Sirloin Saloon..BigK it's not out of business. A-Jeff shot some great footage of me singing to Too Short and Milli Vanilli which he'll upload to youtube..maybe I will become an internet celebrity like Perez Hilton or Tila Tequilla..I'm out..A-Jeff wants me off his precious Apple..

Today was awesome. Great Conditions with wall to wall coverage and the guns are blasting all over the mountain. Expansion is in progress. They have been making snow at the base all day. Gnar.

So when will the base be 100% open?

The base of K1 is open..They won't start making snow at the base of Skyeship for a long time.

Wow, looks like K made the right decision with the pricing structure! Not near as busy as some times I have been there early season but they are certainly not sending up empty chairs and even without being at capacity, the pics between the glades triple and the base area show a considerably high skier/rider density. Certainly a demand for limited skiing even at premium prices and it looks like Powdr has revised its strategy and knows it needs to blow early and blow often to recoup its image in the east. Nice.

Great to see K open and more people getting the chance to ski and ride. Did season pass holders of Killington really have to pay or was that just a rumor? Not gonna lie, I would have paid if I had to...

That was pure 2knees flamebait, nothing more.

Reeeallly good conditions for opening day. Got a little icy towards the end, but, hey.

The KMS kids formed a bump line on the left side of Rime. Very tight bumps so if you were not able to make very quick turns you were better off staying out of that line.
